Checking in on Day 24

[linaewen]

Hello!  I'm linaewen, your friendly "how are you doing at writing today" person for this, the final week in the April WIP challenge.  Let's start  things out with a (hopefully) encouraging quote:

But words are things, and a small drop of ink
falling like dew upon a thought,
produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.
-- Lord Byron

1.  How is your thought-nurturing and word-producing being achieved today?

• I'm writing!
• I'm researching!
• I'm editing!
• I'm taking a break!
• I'm wishing I had time to write, but I'm just too busy with other things...

2.  Do you have a word count for the day or a snippet of a thought or a conversation you want to share?

3.  On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the most positive, how are you feeling about your writing efforts today -- and why did you choose that number?

4.  With one week left to go, how are you feeling about your writing goals for the month?

• I am totally on track!
• I didn't get as much done as I wanted, but I'm still feeling positive about how the month went.
• I got a lot of writing done, but not on the fics I had planned to write this month!
• Not so great -- but there's always next month!

5.  The "answer if you feel like it" question:  How do you define a successful day of writing?

I did a tiny bit of editing -- two comments I had to address in my fic -- & otherwise I'm taking a break. I did reread a snippet I wrote earlier in the month for 750 Words, & I like it a surprising amount! So now I have to do something w/it at some point.

&... I'm going to post this fic tomorrow, which is awesome. But I wanted to finish another fic this month & I don't think I'll get to that point. I feel all right, though, because this now-finished fic was tricky but v. enjoyable. & I wrote a lot of other stuff this month that isn't finished yet but that I definitely want to take forward!

A successful day of writing can mean a lot of things to me: a high word count; writing myself to that moment where the story clicks & I know I'm on the right path; getting through a lot of editing.
